    Hi all,

    I have a doubt on same automated trading strategy on correlation forex pairs. e.g. EURUSD, AUDUSD on TF 30m.
    If same strategy works on both, does it mean the trading result is more reliable ? or not really?
    What’s your opnion / experience sharing? (view of automated trading)

    thanks!

    Some people tend to say that it is the case. Since forex pairs are not always fully correlated, how do the strategy perform in this case? How do you measure correlation, are you relying on a website or something?

    Hi Nicholas,

    Attatched is sample of AUDUSD 30m (left) and EURUSD 30m (right) on Same strategy but slighly different in Stop loss and TP. (Max Stop loss capped at 80 points)
    Website saying AUDUSD, EURUSD strong correlation but according to PRT Correlation indicator is only+0.55 (AUDUSD vs EURUSD) which not fully correlated but both trading results are still acceptable. Do you think it should help at least better confidence level & better realibility?

    The correlation of timeseries is made upon a period. So according to the calculated window, the correlation coefficient will differ.

    According to the below picture, yeah, it seems that EURUSD is highly correlated with AUDUSD:

    I would say yes in this case, but i’m not a guru 🙂  What is the strategy about? Any indis involved in decision making?

    Hi Nicholas,

    Thanks for your clarification & picture. My strategy is mainly on Price Action with Simple MA20/50 and S/R to determine TP & SL (Risk Reward ratio at 1.5)
